trackerjack Posted January 14, 2007 Author Share Posted January 14, 2007 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0Y9iCyW81gWell folks this is not a track day but no one seems to stick to threads anyway so as this is such a rare Triumph I thought you all may like a peep at it driving round Goodwood in the revival, well off the pace, but it was at least there.Why are there no early TR's racing in the revival Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trackerjack Posted January 15, 2007 Author Share Posted January 15, 2007 Well one of my neighbours Mick has been infected with track day fever too and he has a 1987 BMW M5the first clip shows a sharp right turn by a Golf (I think) and the commentry is his son Paul.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTZn3rUQHa4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trackerjack Posted January 15, 2007 Author Share Posted January 15, 2007 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7E5XKPvAhkWell what can I say, the camera work is the main feature, as somehow we had to try to make in look exciting so Diane gave it HER style.Oh and any one who thinks a Sprint is slower than a GT6, watch this one. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPpGZO5RK1U Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trackerjack Posted January 16, 2007 Author Share Posted January 16, 2007 More poor quality vid footage, I put it on because I love close wheel to wheel dicing, cos I would love to race but cannot afford it.I certainly give it more revs to nail the BM once and for all cos he was holding me up in the corners and a handful on the straights.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Soofh3fbpFcThe final one is Micks M5 when he comes across an idiot who clearly has not listened to the briefing.................remember be alert, your country needs lerts.

trackerjack Posted January 17, 2007 Author Share Posted January 17, 2007 Its alright for you Chris I have to sit in the passenger seat with her! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Toledos Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 I'm sure her steering is much steadier than her camera holding. Cameras definitely work better when they're bolted to the car by some means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trackerjack Posted January 18, 2007 Author Share Posted January 18, 2007 The next track day I will have to honour the promise to take you round Chris.As you can see from the shaky clips it was a hairy session, which is just how I like it.Diane ............steady steering? ??)She wont let me bolt her to the car as she bites me when I try :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deleted User Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 wow thankx chaps, You obviously all got bitten by the bug here ;)I particularly love the guy feathering the throttle in the Kart else it simply doesn't face anywhere remotely like the right direction and then getting obvious wheelspin at what seems like about 160mph ;DSounds like Dave S should come on our next jaunt to the ring, come and drive my car ::), so now who will be the passenger (?) as we are doing a video too;Dbtw, does anyone here know you can test at Mallory and wednesday morning if you have a RAC licence, it's very useful if you don't mind the unpredictable midlands weather.

Deleted User Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 [quote by=davesideways link=Blah.pl?b=trackdays,m=1168458220,s=24 date=1169834143]The Kart is mad eh?! 113HP?? 1100cc? Mad considering a 21HP fully tuned 2 Stroke is very much like being attached to a cruise missle and being in a washing machine on a full power spin at the same time....Drive your car? Sounds like a good deal :) [/quote]Well that's a low tuned kart. the really HE MAN (MAXI) karts for enthusiasts have nearly 75 Bhp, but they are usually Rotax 250s. Most people don't have the bottle for such beasts as they do 150mph on a circuit like the ring, the acceleration is just lunatic and they do 20 000rpm+, - so almost as fast as the one with bike engine as the engine weighs next to nothing and consequently much better balance. ;D ;DI'll keep you posted for the 'ring outing, we want to bring some funny stuff like the "Triumph rocket111" a friend has.... ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
